Buying any Audi after your (normal) experience with a VW would be like jumping from the pan directly into the fire. Do NOT. The repair bills are even more outrageous.
Buy a normally aspirated Lexus--used, on CPO or whatever Lexus calls their used with warranty. If you can't swing that then a RAV4.
I squeezed two teenage farm sons into mine with the wife. It wasn't super pleasant but it worked. The RAV4 has, I think, 160k miles on it now and no issues. I change oil and filter every 3k, air filter 5k. I've done brakes on it 3-4-5 times all the way around.
